Day 2 Set to Start

Day 1 Chip Leader, Tim Chocklett
Day 1 Chip Leader, Tim Chocklett

Yesterday, the Hollywood Poker Open kicked off their first stop of their 3rd season with the HPO Lawrenceburg Regional Main Event in Indiana taking place. The tournament would go on to set HPO Regional Main Event records for prize pool ($207,000) and number of entrants (207) and the winner will take home an impressive pay day of $49,676. All in all, 27 players will make the money today with a minimum cash being worth $2,277.

After a long 11 levels of play, the field was thinned down to 43 survivors with Tim Chocklett holding a commanding chip lead with 461,100 in chips. Rounding out the top five heading into play today are Jesse McEwen (271,800), John Moe (211,100), Sam Smith (208,200), and Libby Wilson (174,700).

2003 World Series of Poker Main Event champion Chris Moneymaker would attempt to win his 2nd HPO Championship Event of 2014 but would be eliminated shortly after the dinner break. Joining Moneymaker on the rail were notables like Scott Schwalich, Christopher Greaves, and Chad Eveslage.

Play will be getting underway in about an hour and we're expecting a long, grueling day of poker. PokerNews will be here until the very end with photos, hand updates, and chip counts. Tune in to find out who the next HPO Regional Main Event Champion will be!

Cooper Takes a Small One

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

With approximately 20,000 already in the pot and the board showing {8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} Dustin Cooper made a bet of 11,600 and the action was on Dan Bokesch. Cooper sat silently, his two hands perched on top of his cards, looking directly into the middle of the table with an occasional glance toward his opponent.

Bokesch studied Cooper and after several minutes of contemplation made a reluctant fold.
